Spyderco Forums

Long time since I last posted. Got my seconds haul today. Manix LW Maxamet and a 2 knife mystery box. My mystery box contained a Z-Cut pointed kitchen knife and a Para 3 Marbled Carbon Fiber Elmax exclusive.

Unless you are cleaning it with a Dremel or a belt sander, you don't have anything to worry about. Scrubbing it in the sink with a toothbrush will get the job done and leave it looking new for years.

Let us know how you like it. I've already got a PM1 and have been wondering if there is enough difference to justify buying a new knife.

Yep, handle your knife with care. Oh, wait, I guess this thread should be a warning to all knife owners everywhere.

I just sold off a large part of my Spydie collection, but I will be sorely tempted by a new C44. Especially at a G-10, VG-10 price point!

I believe there is a sprint in the works. Not sure on color/steel combo.

Lean times this Christmas. Wifey is getting me an A.G. Russell Orca because it is cool and affordable. Maybe a Spydie next year!

Great info Phrenik. It is the world that we live in today. YOu can't search or buy anything that doesn't get stored for future use. I have searched items and then later, had a pop up from Amazon with "specials" about the same product. It makes you feel kind of funny. It's like Big Brother...

CARRY - USE - LOVE - REPEAT.

Like some of the other fellas have said, if you don't use it, you'll end up getting rid of it.

I have since sold it (smacks forehead) but I had a Jess Horn ZDP-189 sprint that had been reground by Tom Krein that I used in the kitchen. It was great at slicing and dicing tomatoes, cukes, onions, garlic, etc.

Spyderco has dipped its toes into the "torch" market before.

I think it'd be cool to have a Ladybug paired up with a Photon light that throws a Spydie symbol.

I've never taken one apart and I rarely give detail cleanings, either. They just don't get that dirty. In practice what happens is that I have to use goo gone on my blades to remove tape residue, then a rinse n dry and back in the pocket. I cleaned and sharpened my wife's pink Delica the other day a...

I would like for somebody from Spyderco to weigh in on this since the eBay seller claims to be a former employee.

He definitely typed up a nice story to go along with the auctions.

You might check out the Mino Kami Japanese folder on A. G. Russell's website. Traditional and modern all blended together to make a pretty sweet looking knife.

A. G. Russell sells a folding kitchen knife with a santoku style blade that looks pretty nice.

My only similarity is that I have limited skill :o

Just not my cup of tea in knives; definitely not something I would look to Spyderco for.

Firefly, man I love that show! Oh, dang, wrong forum...

I didn't have to use the Spydie I had on me, but I did use my Vic Swiss army knife the other day. I was paying for lunch at a restaurant and the hostess couldn't find a pen for me to sign the receipt. She was going to have me sign with the dry erase marker from their daily specials board. I got out ...
